Lelieur, 1812. Bright crimsqp, large, 



double, very fragrant; occasionally 



blooms in autumn. 

 E. Verdier, 1879. Velvety-red, shaded 



with crimson, slightly resembling Mme. 



Victor Verdier. 

 Madame Ducher, 1880. Bright red. 



W. Paul, 1878. Belongs to the VictorVer- 

 dier type. Salmon-pink, a deeper shade 

 than Euge'nie Verdier ; peculiar wood 

 and foliage more like Captain Christy 

 than any other variety. A good rose, 

 but with too many imperfect blooms. 



Turner, 1874. Satiny- rose, tinged with 

 lilac, a large, well-formed, globular 

 flower ; but does not open well. 



White, faintly tinged with yellow, long, 

 beautiful buds, delicate habit. 



Laffay, 1852. Bright red, a fine color, 

 flowers loose. 



VIoreau-Robert, 1859. Rosy-flesh, 

 deeper at centre, large, full, well 

 formed, fine in the bud. An excellent 

 variety. 



A species from Japan, introduced some 

 years ago. White, large size, five petals, 

 fragrant. A beautiful single rose. 



A.lso from Japan. Deep rose, tinged 

 with violet, single, fragrant. The 

 flowers are succeeded by very bright 

 colored heps of large size, which in the 

 autumn are exceedingly attractive. 

 The leaflets are nine in number, of dark 

 color, very tough and durable. These 

 two kinds are splendid shrubs for bor- 

 ders. 



. Paul, 1872. Maroon, flushed with 

 scarlet-crimson, medium size, full, well 

 formed ; shy in the autumn and sub- 

 ject to mildew. A rose of great beauty 

 but not at all adapted to general culti- 

 vation. 



Jeauregard, 1839. Saffron and apricot- 

 yellow, large, semi-double, exceedingly 

 beautiful in the bud, very free. The 

 seed organs are better developed than 

 in almost any other kind.
